Popular TikTok creator Peller has spoken out after TVC host Riyah reportedly called him uneducated during a recent show.
In a video shared online, Peller expressed how hurt and disappointed he felt. He said he has worked hard through tough times without much support and questioned why Riyah was attacking him. Peller explained that he completed secondary school but couldn’t afford university. He also reminded people of the millions of naira he has donated to those in need through his TikTok platform.
“Why are you talking about me? When I was struggling in Ikorodu, who was there to help me?” he asked.
The conflict began after Riyah criticized Peller for offering ₦500,000 to hire graduates and people with master’s degrees as cameramen. This led to a wider discussion online about the importance of qualifications and how people are valued.
Many are watching to see if Riyah or Peller will say more about this or if the matter will quietly calm down. Either way, it shows how Nigeria’s media scene is changing as new voices push back against older ones.
